Your looking for your hockey identity and so are the Wild in a way with a extremely young team (#2 rated prospect pool) as well as boasting the #1/#2 (depends on who) player not playing in the NHL yet in Mikael Granlund. Next year he will be a rookie and is by far a shoe in for rookie of the year. I know you live in NY but one trip to the Excell Energy Center and you would be hooked. I mean there are very few losing teams the past three years who still sells out pretty much every game and loves their team no matter what. We were number 1 in the NHL past December but well we are infamous for getting the injury bug. This season will be interesting but with something like 5 kids turning pro, and many of them being top rated prospects, it shouldnt be long for them to turn this ship around.
